Below are pictures from the opening ceremony which took place on Wednesday 16th April. The opening shot was taken by Sir Basil Brooke, this was followed by an exhibition match featuring A E Lowe, ex Irish Amateur Champion.

The annual meeting was held in the clubhouse on Wednesday 6th April 1927, Sir Basil L Brooke (president) in the chair. The report showed a credit balance in hand and a reduction in working expenses. It was decided that any person wishing to join the club outside a 15 mile radius would be charged half fees. The following officers were elected; Trustee, J Taverner; captain, John W Little; secretary and treasurer, E M Loughlin; assistant secretary and treasurer, R S Tavener.

An extraordinary meeting was held In September 1929 to discuss the future of the club. It was decided to hold a sale of work in an attempt to wipe off some of the debt.

At a meeting of the Council of the club in April 1932 it was decided to appoint the Misses Bleakley hon. members. They had taken an active interest in the welfare of the club for many years, and their brother, Dr. W E Bleakley, who died a short time ago, was a member of the Council.

At an extraordinary meeting in November 1933 it was decided to move to a new course on land belonging to Mrs McSurggan, at Corcreevy. A committee had been formed some time ago to investigate the matter. They strongly recommended the area as not only convenient to Fivemiletown, but also suitable for the laying out of a more interesting course than the present one.

Whether or when the club actually moved is still not clear. The only evidence that the club had moved was in May 1934 when it was reported that the Fivemiletown Golf Club held a dance in the “New Clubhouse.”

In 1935 the secretary was S Gamble the green-keeper was W Glendininng.

In 1940 the green-keeper was T Carruth. The 9-hole course had a SSS and Par of 64 and a membership of 60. Visitors’ fees were 1/6 a day. Sunday play was not allowed. The railway station at Fivemiletown was 500yds away.
